Good day everyone. Ive been researching about high wizard since that's where im heading towards and was thinking about spell burst and survival in battle. Currently there's 2 hw builds: Glass cannon wizard (Int/Dex/Crt) and tank wizard (Int/Dex/vit). Glass cannon wizard's depend on the skill spellburst which isn't obtained in until later in the game. Tank wizard's are bulky and survive well in battle depending on their vitality but could there ever be a slightl chance of the perfect Tank cannon wizard? I imagine it wouldn't have the full potential as either builds but is there a chance of the perfect bulky and heavy hitting wizard that seems almost overpowered?

You might need to be level cap and have every single stat maxed out to have enough points to do it but it should be possible.
Max int (over capped) 226-240 Dex Max crt (over capped) Rest vit
Or have something like this setup
Ambition slot with fiona ☆fluency Exelis 3 with moldus ☆fluency Bunny ear hat slot with tarna ☆fluency Whatever accessory with ☆fluency Ghost candle or whatever slot with durlin ☆fluency
That way you have spell burst, cast time, skill delay and some hp.
However its still a mage so you will still have limitations as far as durability.
Honestly though i would try a spellburst setif you hit 400+INT. Rita on weapon(15) rita on armor and special(10) pulin on add(i think is 10) totaling out tk 35 extra spell burst. So with 400 crt you will spell burst every hit and that would more than make up for any matk xtals.
I have lots more to type but ill stop here

Tilt - did you know that Fluency has a downside of bringing down your drop rate? just curious. With so much fluency, you may end up being a poor sturdy canon, not being able to collect the spoils of war. or am i mistaking between Fluency / Quick Use? However, HiWiz is a pure DPS character to play and ability to solo is more a proof of concept than being able to farm. I personally went with 50% CRT and 50% VIT. Then got greedy and restat myself to EXP 100, about 150 VIT and rest in CRT. Of course - maxed INT & DEX to the extent possible first. HiWiz is a good support in Boss farm, perfect for any mob grind with a huge arsenel of AOE skills. More self sufficient with Drain / MP Recharge. Less reliant on pots. Naturally all expensive gear otherwise

Naturally all expensive gear otherwise Nah fluency's downside is its MP consumption lol never heard that it affects drop rate. As for the OP there is no current best build its always player preference for what they think is best for them to farm/grind. having vit you tend to have more survivability whereas if you have spellburst you have better damage compared to INT/DEX/VIT as you will be able to proc Spellburst and have better spellburst damage because you have CRT maxed. If you want the rate/damage to increase try using spellburst crystas like Rita,Pole or Ushilth as all of them contain Spellburst % Theres hybrid style where you can get INT/DEX/VIT/CRT maxxed at 256 considering that you level your apostolia stats to get the sufficient amount of stat points, that way you can benefit from survivability as well as spellburst style You have the magic amp razziel code style if you'd like stable matk but its squishy like spellburst, but you do have better evasion to avoid some boss physical hits.

I thought spell burst was fixed 50% and that only rate is affected by crt. If it affects the damage then it is really worth boosting your crt.

Never heard anything about drop rate lol. But either way, true or not, the objective was to get a build that could have durability and spell burst, which was achieved in my imaginary set. Ive never noticed a drop in drop rate with my wiz using fluency though.
Solo wise, High wizard is hit or miss but still overall good if you abuse your skill effects. You literally have to build and gear it to be able to solo.I chose to do it this way because I did not like to party much and wasnt satisfied with spellbursts unreliability and me being killed in 1 or 2 shots vs me having to attack an extra couple seconds and can take a few hits.
Support on a high wizard is something that I wouldnt know personally. I never MP anyone. That could make me a bad high wizard, but then again I dont party much either besides farming, which I dont even do anymore. High wizard has 3 4 great magic attacks 4 minor magic attacks, skils meant to aid itself attack wise like mana stock and imperial ray. I personally find it insulting for my character to spend millions on matk/cast/skill delay gear to get the legenary high elemental damage and have to clean up after other characters by MPing them the entire fight. Best support for a high wizard is to kill the enemy faster in my opinion. Leave the MPing to the Lv.120 and below thats looking for boosts.

Hmm Tilt after having read this i think I'm just gonna be a Tank wizard. I rarely party with others so i guess i should depend on myself and my vitality in battle. Besides i have seen your vids and you seem to do very well solo.

Hmm so crt is vital to blizzard then huh. Then again there's always ice spear. I'll have to keep that in mind the more CRT you have, the more you chance you'll have to make a 6HIT for example : 1 CRT > you can do a blizzard that will make 1 HIT to 6 HIT 30 CRT > 4 HIT to 6 HIT 100 CRT > 5 HIT to 6 HIT remember that CRT affect blizzard skill too so INT/DEX/CRT/VIT for me is better Your confused with DEX. Blizzard doesnt work that way. Even without researching it, I can say through my own experience that blizzard has never hit less than 4 times ever and Ive always had 1 crt. And just for the record here is the jp wiki definition of blizzard Blizzard (PT range attack)The object causing the snowstorm I attack more than once. enemy fellow are fighting also be frozen by attack at the same time. Fixed hit rate, up to 6 hits. SLv1 MP410 Quest [! skill acquisition trial] (Lv180) clear ※ fixed hit rate average expected hit number 4 (1 ~ 6hit occurred) in the dependent ※ DEX1 to DEX value, average in DEX400 expected hit number 5 (4 ~ 6hit occurrence)

This is not the first time I saw this (maybe from same person? not sure) but would like to see source. Neither of those abilities affect drops, afaik. I thought spell burst was fixed 50% and that only rate is affected by crt. If it affects the damage then it is really worth boosting your crt. Same here.
